Introduction

Through this project, our group wishes to better inform our peers about the bias that has infiltrated most forms of media in the United States. The media bias in question includes but is not limited to personal, political and economic bias. We believe that media bias qualifies as a form of social injustice because the reporters have been given the responsibility to inform the public accurately about the news. In this situation, biased news reporters hold power over the public in that they can shape and distort our views in order to better suit their needs.

Bill Keenan: I am interested in investigating media bias because I am intrigued with the messages hidden within the news. I hope that with our project, we can convince the public to take a serious look at the validity of their trusted news sources.

Domenic Noto: I am very interested in media bias because it is very prvelant in the world today. Millions of Americans watch the news every night, and can be affected by media bias.
